In this work, we analyse the chicken production in a poultry network composed of a set of farms that serves a slaughterhouse in the city of Tlemcen. Each farm has a chicken house dedicated to breeding, and each chicken house has three breeding modes: manual breeding, semi-automatic breeding, and automatic breeding. And each mode consumes an appropriate energy level depending on the degree of automation used, which directly affects the quality of the chicken. The objective of this study is to determine the best energy adaptation within the farm to obtain good quality chickens. The problem of this activity is the choice of the right energy level of breeding, which consumes a minimum energy value, and gives a good quality of chickens. Knowing that the quality improves with the increase of energy, this study serves to develop mathematical modelling of two objectives: minimization of energy consumption and maximization of the chicken quality produced. The two objectives are optimized independently, and then they are joined by adapting the LP-metric method to help the breeders choose the optimal energy level to obtain good quality chickens.
